DN 500 PN 16 flange: dimensions, bolt circle and drilling (EN 1092-1)
The DN 500 PN 16 flange to EN 1092-1 is 715 mm (28.15 in) across, with 20 holes of 33 mm (1.3 in) on a 650 mm (25.59 in) bolt circle, for M30 bolts; the pipe is 508 mm (20 in) outside. The holes straddle the centre lines, the first one 9° off, and the chord between neighbouring holes, which is the divider setting for stepping the drilling out, is 101.7 mm (4 in).

Questions
- How many bolts does a %{size} %{class} flange have?
- %{holes}, of %{bolt}, through holes of %{hole} on a %{circle} bolt circle.
- What is the bolt circle of a %{size} %{class} flange?
- %{circle}. The holes are %{angle}° apart, and the first one sits %{half}° off the centre line, so that two flanges mate in any symmetric position. The chord between neighbouring holes is %{chord}.
- Can a %{size} %{class} flange be cut from plate?
- As a plate flange, for low pressure: ducts, tanks, water lines. The outline and the drilling above are what the flange calculator draws, with the 1:1 template and the DXF for plasma or laser. A pressure flange to %{standard} is forged, with a hub and a raised face, and its thickness and facing come from the standard.
